Cse of Forrit for Recreation Yet in Infancy NATIONAL PLAYGROUNDS THK DAY OF THE WILDKKNKHS CP THE SAVAGE IS PASSING. THAT OF NATIONAL FORESTS AH PRODUCTIVE RESOURCES AND AS PARKS. . * Washington, D. Apgpst 87.? Before the year's outing season 1b over nearly half a million persons will have sought recreation aud j health In the National Forests of the United States. According to the rec ord of the U. 8. Department of Agri culture, the total last year was, In eloae figures 406.775. With the fin est mountain scenery and much of th* best fishing and big game hunt ing In the United States, the Nation al Forests, made more and more ac cessible each year through protec tion and development by the Govern ment, are Cast becoming great Na tional playgrounds for the people. The use of the forests for recroa tlon is as yet in its beginning, but is I growing steadily and rapidly?in soma of the forests at the rate of a hundred per cent per annum. The day eems not far distant when a mil lion persons will annually visit them. The recprds show that the season al use of the forests runs from two months In a Colorada forest, such as the Routt, t twelve months In an Alaskan, such an the TongasB. But the uses differ. In Colorado the 2. 000 visitors entered the forest to fish, to camp, to climb, and to drink the medicinal waters: in Alaska the l.')00 almost solely to hunt and fish. |The 21,000 persons who went into the Coconino forest, Arizona,1" during ulue months, went to camp or to | enjoy the scenery. During four months 50,000 persons visited the Angeles. California. The most, pop ular of the forests is the Pike, con taining the famous peak of that name. The various attractions with, in its limits, including the scenic railway, drew 100,000 tourists and others. By jiripclpa.l States th? Na jtiorial forest visitors numbered 23, 000 in Arizona, 103.000 in Califor nia, 140,000 in Colorado ,19.000 in Montana, 10,000 in New Mexico. 35,000 in Oregon. 22,000 ]n Idaho. 16,000 in Utah, and 12,000 in Wash ington. Of the natural wonders and land marks of interest In the National for ests several have been set apart as National Mounments. among them Cinder Cone, a great lava basin In ICalifornia; the Gila Cliff Dwellings, extensive remains of a pre-hlstorlc race In New Mexico; the unsuhpass led Grand Canyon of the Colorado. In Arizona; Jewel Cave. South Dakota; I lessen Peak, the terminus of a line of entinct volcanoes In the Cascades: the Pinnacles, a collection of re markable Jagged peaks in California; land the Tonto, a group of prehistoric 'rujns In the Tonto foreBt In Arizona. The Big Trees, Glacier Park, the Petrified forest, the Oregon cave*, and numerous other phenoment all serven to attract other hosts of vla lltora. ' The sportsmen find their paradise in tho National forests. In many of them big game abounds. The rangers and the guards, besides the service they perform against tho spread of fire, often point out the best site for the camper and the easiest route. A record of 9.218 miles or trail cut. 1.236 miles of road laid out, and 4.851 miles of telephone line strung tells what the Government, has done In the way of pushing the conven iences of civilisation into the prime val forest. The day of the wilderness of the savage and the pioneer is now swiftly passing; the da^ of the Na tional Forests as productive resour ces and as National parks approaches', The report of laat year's administra tion by the U. 8. Department of Ag riculture evidences the rapidity of the transformation. TRAMI* PATH BACK LOAN. New York. Aug, ? 2t.?The Dollar Dill Mystery of Elisabeth. N. J-. whk solved yesterday.

The feature picture of the evening will be "Old Glory."?Vitagraph. This Is a picture that will profoundly stir the patriotic impulses in every person's breast. The conception of the design of the flag la ascribed to Benjamin Franklin, who in a dream sees Freedom pluck the stars from the skies and lay them at his feet. They even question that Betsy Ross made the first flag, or that she ever lived In tlie little house on Arch ?treet. But It Is a pretty fancy, and* surely no one Is harmed by belteving It. Scenes from the various wars, typical of what they stood for, are selected, each one representing the triumph of the flag. untU finally, amid a burst of applause, it is seen waving over the land of freedom, the only flag on earth that was never trailed In the dust or hauled down in the Ignominy of defeat.
